Study: Investing On Forests Reduces Megafires And Saves Millions |
|
Posted by: thepinetree on 04/10/2014 11:13 PM
|
| San Francisco, CA...A new study released today finds investing in proactive forest management activities can save up to three times the cost of future fires, reduce high-severity fire by up to 75 percent, and bring added benefits for people, water, and wildlife. “Recent megafires in California and the West have destroyed lives and property, degraded water quality, damaged wildlife habitat, and cost taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars,” said David Edelson, Sierra Nevada Project Director with The Nature Conservancy. “This study shows that, by investing now in Sierra forests, we can reduce risks, safeguard water quality, and recoup up to three times our initial investment while increasing the health and resilience of our forests.” ... |

Board of Equalization Returns More Than $27 Million in Cash Deposits |
|
Posted by: Andy_Johnson on 04/08/2014 03:02 PM
|
Sacramento, CA ... The California State Board of Equalization (BOE) is returning approximately $27.6 million in cash deposits to more than 5,000 businesses in California and out-of-state, announced BOE Member George Runner today. The refunds come as a result of a Board decision to end automatic security deposit requirements for new businesses. Runner fought for this change, and his colleagues joined him in voting to end the policy in December 2013. “Thousands of business owners throughout California are receiving a welcome surprise in their mailbox,” said Runner. “Rather than a notice of a new tax, fee or audit, they’re getting a check from the State of California marked ‘SECURITY REFUND.’”The BOE began issuing checks this week, and will continue to do so for the next few weeks. With these latest numbers, the Board’s December 2013 vote has led to the release of more than $95.4 million in security deposits to taxpayers who have good reporting and payment histories. However, state law requires that the BOE continue to collect security deposits from its non-retail licensees who sell cigarettes and tobacco products, regardless of payment history...
